Recommendations

Here are a few of the sites and companies I have used and would recommend to others. 

Disclosure: There are some affiliate links below and I may receive commissions for purchases made through links in this post, but these are all products that I personally recommend.  I wouldn’t add anything here without trying it first or having years of experience with it.

Airbnb

Airbnb is a big part of the reason so many people all over the world are considering renting out their homes, renting part of their homes, or renting while they travel.  I’ve been doing this for over 3 years now and I am so pleased with it.  It’s been an excellent income stream for my father as well. You set your prices, add your photos, and choose from preset cancellation policies. Airbnb does the rest.  You pay nothing up front and your listing can be live as soon as you are ready to start accepting rentals.  Try it out here.

Ebates

Like making money from your house?  How about making money from your couch?  I had heard of Ebates, I had seen the commercials and I always saw it in kind of a negative context.  Until I realized what it really was.  Ebates is a button you can install on your browser that gets you cash back on tons of online purchases.  Ever tried those search sites that try to find you an offer code for something you can’t really afford but are dying to have? Then you get to the cart and they don’t really work. This is SO MUCH better. It’s built in. Offer codes, discounts, and cash back.  My first month I got $25.  I am only partway through the next time period, and already my cash back balance is $250! Join here.

Bluehost

Are you interested in starting your own website, online store, or blog?  I’m a total beginner, and I am SO GLAD I chose Bluehost right from the start!  From making it super simple to install WordPress (also free!) to the professional @beachhousehustle.com email addresses, to the live chat, they are extremely helpful and the more I discover about the platform, the more I like it.  So much is customizable, and it’s all idiot-proof.  Forget learning code, they have created a product that makes the need to even understand what code is a thing of the past!  Join Bluehost here.

Daily Harvest

Healthy. Fresh. Nutritious. Vegetarian. DELICIOUS. Delivered to your door. Ready in minutes. You choose the frequency. You choose the cups. Set your schedule up in advance, come back and skip a delivery at any time. Mix up the cups you try. No preservatives. Lattes. Smoothies. Overnight Oats. Soups. Harvest Bowls. Juices. Chia Parfaits.

After spending much of my youth as a thin, carefree, busy girl who ran around a lot, adult life + the desk job has now caught up with me.  I’ve spent the past 6 years battling my weight and losing.  I started Daily Harvest just before Christmas, and together with coaching from Noom, I’m down 22 pounds and counting.  Try Daily Harvest and get three free cups!

The Skimm

Love being up to date on world news, current events + other global issues, but can’t stand the nightly news? No time for newspapers?  Try the Skimm.  I love it. Since joining almost 3 years ago, I have woken up every morning with a great little email in my inbox.  It’s a summary of everything important that’s going on in the world around you, but presented in a fun, upbeat + lighthearted manner.  It takes me about 5 minutes to read it, and I don’t feel like a dumbass when my stepfather brings up something he saw on the news last night. Join the Skimm here.
